In The Marvels, Selznick crafts
another remarkable artistic and bookmaking achievement that weaves
together two seemingly unrelated stories - one in words, the
other in pictures - with spellbinding synergy.

"The
illustrations take you by the hand, and they don't let go"
- The Guardian

The illustrated story
begins in 1766 with Billy Marvel, the lone survivor of a shipwreck,
and charts the adventures of his family of actors over five
generations.

The prose story opens in 1990 and follows Joseph,
who has run away from school to an estranged uncle's puzzling
house in London, where he, along with the reader, must piece together
many mysteries.

Filled with mystery, vibrant characters,
surprise twists, and heart-rending beauty, and featuring Selznick's
most arresting art to date, The Marvels is a moving
tribute to the power of story.
